Create Likert scales in CRF's

I'm doing CRF's for a study that uses CGI and SGI scales (based on likert scales). When I put it on an OpenClinica CRF, how I'm I supposed to introduce the response options (1 to 7, 1 being strongly disagree and 7 strongly agree, for instance) in order to be similar to a questionare using likert scales? There isn't anyway of creating a sort of a table with the options on the top and the questions on the left as in paper questionaries?

I think that Alicia's suggestion of using a horizontal layout might create a similar looking scale.

One option is to place the statement ("I would like to read more posts about survey rating scales") in the Left Item Text. When you create the Response Options Text, you can simply use the options "Strongly Disagree", "Disagree", "Undecided", "Agree", "Strongly Agree" (or something similar) and se the Response Layout to "Horizontal"

As another option, you could try putting the statement ("I would like to read more posts about survey rating scales") in the Header of the CRF Item. Using this approach, the statement will appear above the response options. In the Left Item Text, you can put "Strongly Disagree" and in the Right Item Text, you can put "Strongly Agree." The Response Options Text in this case could simply be numbers such as 1,2,3,4,5.
